A young married couple becomes stranded at an isolated motel and find hidden video cameras in their room. They realize that unless they escape, they'll be the next victims of a snuff film.
For the most part, this movie hits the right notes and gives its audience a dose of white-knuckle tension.

But efficiency isn't everything, and Antal sacrifices too much in order to sustain tension.
